A \[25{,}000\space\text{kg}\] booster is falling. It experiences a gravitational pull of \[245{,}000\space\text{N}\]. The booster's engine fires for \[14\:\text{s}\] before landing, slowing the booster from a velocity of \[212\frac{\text{m}}{\text{s}}\downarrow\] to \[0\frac{\text{m}}{\text{s}}\] over that time. What is the approximate magnitude of the thrust? Choose 1 answer: (Choice A) \[548{,}000\space\text{N}\] A \[548{,}000\space\text{N}\] (Choice B) \[575{,}000\space\text{N}\] B \[575{,}000\space\text{N}\] (Choice C) \[623{,}000\space\text{N}\] C \[623{,}000\space\text{N}\] (Choice D) \[685{,}000\space\text{N}\] D \[685{,}000\space\text{N}\]
